Guys,

Quick note, i followed the wife leaving the house today in her 64 reg A180 that is fitted with the bi xenon an rear led lights. Notice that when she was applying the brake a section of the passenger side brake light was out.

On further inspection tonight i can see a section of 5 leds fail to light up when applying the brake.

No warning lights on the dash so maybe something to be aware of.

Car is booked in for Monday next week to either have a whole new light cluster or the internals as i believe the individual leds are non serviceable.

Will update you when complete.
 
It is not an uncommon fault. Our local dealer certainly wasn't surprised and just ordered a replacement unit (the whole light cluster) on the spot.

Thanks for letting me know. Sure the dealer will follow suit.
 
So new rear lamp fitted. In the dealer long enough to enjoy a cappuccino.
